You people are too funny, I couldn't pass this up. Do you think one of the reasons that gameboomers works so well is the heavy influence of older people? Not that you're heavy, hehe. Aw, the physical shell is 45, and I'm proud to join this group!

I just had my 56th birthday this month on the 7th hehe. I am having a ball playing my Might & Magic 9 and have Schizm and Mystery of the Druids waithing to be played. My husband and sons know what I want for gifts and ofcourse I give hints hehe. Hey we are a very special and fun group here.

Hey, TSS, I think your UBB Poll would be a very good idea. Somebody out there somewhere ought to realize that not all computer games players are males between 16 and 25! Mind you, I like space oriented ones too. My father was sci-fi mad and I was brought up on the old pulps and BEM's. Biggest disappointment of my life when I realized I was never going to space travel.

I love this question....explains why the posts here are usually thoughtful and folks are so considerate and supportive of one another...we're past the point of big egos and such....and have you guys noticed the wealth of knowledge and experiences here that often surface when talking about different games,etc...now I know why Happy Gamer

Actually Thatldu, that's how we got our name. We are babyboomers that love to game.

I think Rick's idea of a poll is great. I doubt it will have much impact, but it may surprise publishers and give them food for thought. The publishers also need to find another way to count sales.....IMHO
